Dearest followers! Do you remember that I wrote THIS extremely happy and exciting blogpost where I shared the indescribable good news that my man and I had found the most beautiful apartment and we signed the contract and were going to move in late November? Yep… Unfortunately, the plan didn’t really work out that way. Everything happens for a reason – I strongly believe in that. A couple of weeks before we had to move in and we had transferred lots of money for rent as well as deposits I received a sad call from the agency. They just wanted to inform us that a big scaffolding had been set up all around the apartment. Since the building needed a whole new roof. I wondered strongly if that was something the agency knew before Ferhus & I signed the contract? They said they didn’t know anything about it. (Which I have a hard time believing!) The scaffolding blocked every single window in the apartment, and you couldn’t even look out. That also means that we constantly would have workers passing by our windows from morning to night – which is wildly disturbing since both me and my man work from home. One of the main reasons why we decided to go for that apartment was because of the big beautiful windows.Not only would the caffolding block the light but it also means that people from the street can easily climb up the scaffolding and easily make burglary – and since we travel a lot and often are away several weeks in a row, we do not really feel safe with this situation. I then asked how long the scaffold were going to be up, because if it were a month, maybe you could live with it, but we were talking about half a year or more? Plus we are now entering the winter period which most likely means delay due to the weather, etc.

I was incredibly sad about the news because I thought we had finally found the DREAM APARTMENT. We both knew that we had to withdraw from the agreement. We have therefore decided to stayed in my apartment where I used to live with my best friend Louise.

I didn’t really wanted to accept it at first, but there was nothing we could do about it. Since I have traveled non stop since I’ve moved back to London and my boyfriend was living in North England, my apartment in London has most of the time felt like a train station. A platform where I came, slept, unpacked, packed and then I left again. Now that Mr boyfriend has moved in, we have done everything we could to make the apartment really cosy, so now it feels like a real home. <3 We have been moved around in the living room, I cook for us, I bake, we have friends over for cosy dinners and we have started to decorate the bedroom. We have got a desk in the living room, we have invested in a printer and next week, my boyfriend gets a TV so that he can watch his folding ball – haha!

Life is fantastic. I’m crazy in love and in a few days my man and I have been together for a year. This year have been full of big adventures. Hard and good times – but there is no doubt that the best thing that have happened is that I have met Fergus, and I am happy that we now live under the same roof..
